....except for ONE you mean.

May it be the Mouths of Sirion since Silmarils have never been there.

Hmm.... And I'm even giving a subtle little hint...
And this hint you speak of...is it the icon that you did every post with regarding this question, the Star Emblem (which I did mine with). Was that meant to be an indication that the answer was indeed the Silmarils?

Of course, that's why it's "Odd PLACE out"

You are correct!

Pallando B.C 02-11-2003 04:33 PM

Ok, but was my instinct correct regarding your suttle hint?

Imladris
Lorien
Minas Tirith
Fangorn

Lindolirian 02-11-2003 06:53 PM

Yes, you were right about my hint.

Imladris in the only one not named after something or someone of the same name.

Other guesseses:

Minas Tirith because it isn't in close proximity to the Misty Mountains, or Fangorn, the only place where Men and Elves do not live. Also, Imladris is the only one on the Western side of the Misty Mountains.

Pallando B.C 02-12-2003 01:46 AM

No, none of them.

Think of their residents.

Lyra Greenleaf 02-12-2003 02:01 PM

Fangorn is the only place where the residents are trees/ents!

It's also the only place where residents don't have elvish blood

Imladris is the only place where all the fellowship went together? (Oh thats not residents. Sorry)

Is there a hint in the fact that you're using Imladris instead of Rivendell?

Lindolirian 02-12-2003 06:31 PM

Imladris is the only one where people of many races live. In Lorien, it's only elves, Fangorn, only Ents, and in Minas Tirith, only Men. In Rivendell, the Elves of course, at least one hobbit, and Aragorn used to live there.

Pallando B.C 02-13-2003 02:19 AM

That's it Lindolirian. The floor is yours....

Lindolirian 02-13-2003 04:42 PM

Edoras
the Morannon
Isengard
Dol Amroth
Pelennor Fields

lathspell 02-16-2003 10:26 AM

Pelennor Fields: all have to do with ringed places (mountains and gate or walls and gate), except this one.

Gil-Galad 02-16-2003 12:42 PM

i know its not my turn but i thought of one and can someone figure it out and it doesn't have to count or anything and don't put any post saying i'm nt suppose too and stuff.

1. Dol Amroth
2. Osgiliath
3. Lindon
4. Grey Havens
5. Erebor

Gil-Galad 02-16-2003 12:56 PM

Edoras or Dol Amroth thats where evil hasn't attacked or been?

Gil-Galad 02-16-2003 12:57 PM

the Morannon isn't in control of good?

Lindolirian 02-16-2003 04:10 PM

Haven't seen the right answer yet!

elven maiden Earwen 02-16-2003 04:13 PM

isengard because out of alll those places ents have only been there

o Gil-Galad just a guess but is it Osgilith because it was the only place that was a ruin at the end of the third age. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Gil-Galad 02-16-2003 06:04 PM

actually there are 2 answers to my question thanks to my brother who told me

Lindolirian 02-16-2003 06:57 PM

Earwen: Not quite, but it does have to do with places that somebody has been.

elven maiden Earwen 02-16-2003 07:03 PM

the morranon because its the only place frodo went

Gil-Galad 02-17-2003 10:28 AM

the Morannon is the only place frodo went too or/and gollum went too?

elven maiden Earwen 02-17-2003 11:31 AM

Dol Amroth becuse none of the fellowship went there.

Gil-Galad 02-18-2003 11:07 PM

should i start i new one since no answer is coming? well here goes

1. Imaldris
2. Lindon
3. Orthanc
4. Minas Anor

Hint: think age and who controls it

Gil-Galad 02-18-2003 11:09 PM

also the answer to my last one is Erebor-not located by body of water leading to ocean or Lindon becasue that was in different age

Lindolirian 02-19-2003 03:05 PM

Gil-Galad: See the Quiz Room Rules

I posted the question on the 13th. The question was still be asked about on the 16th. You need to give it ten days according to the Rules. Trivia isn't the only thing learned in the quiz room. Patience is too.

O and by the way, I still need the right answer.
Hint: the person who has been to all these places but one, lives by the Sea.

Tar-Palantir 02-19-2003 04:28 PM

I'm going to say Edoras. Cirdan is the only being I can think that lives by the Sea. He was at the Pellenor Fields and the Morannon during the last alliance. I'm just guessing that he was in Orthanc at some point for a wizard's counsel, maybe? And Dol Amroth is near to the Sea in Belfalas so why shouldn't he have stumbled by there at some point? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Sorry it's all guesswork, but it's the best I can do.

elven maiden Earwen 02-19-2003 07:36 PM

Edoras because Prine Imrhail didnt go there (did he go to Isengard)

Lindolirian 02-19-2003 08:19 PM

Earwen... check the RotK. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
No, he did not go to Isengard.

[ February 20, 2003: Message edited by: Lindolirian ]

lathspell 02-20-2003 05:31 AM

Dol Amroth, because Aragorn never went there.

Gil-Galad 02-20-2003 04:41 PM

didn't he go there after the pass of the dead then he went to pelergir?

elven maiden Earwen 02-21-2003 11:59 PM

the morrannon because its the only place the mouth of Sauron went or

Dol Amroth because its the only place none of the fellowship went.

Gil-Galad 02-22-2003 10:41 AM

DIDN'T ARAGORN GO TO DOL AMROTH AFTER THE PATHS OF THE DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lindolirian 02-22-2003 11:41 AM

No, he did not. He didn't make it that far south. Earwen was pretty close a while back...

Tar-Palantir 02-22-2003 11:55 AM

geeez... Don't blow a gasket there Gil. No, Aragorn and his ghastly army did not go to Dol Amroth at that time.


[img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] happy happy...

Tar-Palantir 02-22-2003 12:19 PM

AHA! I did not remember that Imrahil had gone to Edoras. So the answer most assuredly is Isengard for Imrahil has never been there. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Lindolirian 02-22-2003 02:30 PM

You got it Tar-Palantir!!! Take it away! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Tar-Palantir 02-22-2003 11:36 PM

Nimrodel
Baranduin
Sirannon
Anduin

bonne chance tout le monde!

Annunfuiniel 02-23-2003 08:42 AM

Sirannon? The Ring never crossed it en route...
or because it's the only one that didn't flow anymore during the Great Years.
Baranduin? The only one with also a hobbit name (Brandywine).

Well, I just HAD to participate in this thread too though I haven't got the slightest idea what I'm doing... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Lindolirian 02-23-2003 05:12 PM

Baranduin is the only one that has its source in a lake rather than coming from tributaries in the Misty Mountains.

Tar-Palantir 02-23-2003 05:55 PM

No, it's not the source I'm looking for. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Annunfuiniel 02-23-2003 10:44 PM

Anduin is the only one to have many (great) sources?

lathspell 02-24-2003 05:22 AM

Annunfuiniel, the Sirannon is the gate-stream of Moria, not the major river of West-Beleriand... that's the Sirion (sp)

I guess Nimrodel, because all the other rivers were 'ways' into danger.
Baranduin was towards the Old Forest.
Anduin towards Amon Hen
Sirannon towards Moria

All places where their was danger, but after Nimrodel comes Lorien and there was
no danger in that place.
